Hi Stephan,
I'm working on implementing SOAP on J2ME peers, in a P2P network. Since 
I wont be using SOAP/ HTTP, but rather SOAP/ P2PMessages (JXME) , I 
cannot assume that the class name is the URL in HttpRequest and that the 
method name is the SOAP element name.
This is why using the kSoapServlet code is not very usefull for me from 
this point of view.
I saw that in the SoapServlet, there are publishClass, publishInstance 
and publishMethod methods. These methods are not used! Add to that that 
there are no methods that could search instanceMap and ClassMap for a 
match given a namespace+ element name (name of method to be invoked)
Do they exist somewhere? or should I implement such methods by myself?
My guess is: With the namespace and the elementname (methodname), I 
lookup a template in the ClassMap. I didn't  understand how to use this 
template though...
Then, with this, I have to find a way to locate the class's name, and by 
so its instance from the instanceMap, then call the corresponding method 
+ arguments.
Can you please explain to me how the template thing works?

Thanks a lot
